Museum of Füssen
Description
The museum of the city of Füssen is located in the southern part of the former Benedictine Abbey of St. Mang. This impressive monastery complex survived the secularization of 1803 and the crisis periods of the 19th and 20th centuries largely unscathed. The museum offers exhibitions on various topics as well as special exhibitions. For more information, visit www.museum.stadt-fuessen.de
